Value Collection 38640 Ss Pipe Nipple 2 in Sch 40 Gr 304

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 38640 is a welded stainless steel pipe nipple designed for use in piping systems that require corrosion-resistant connections. Constructed from Grade 304 stainless steel and manufactured to Schedule 40 wall thickness, this nipple delivers the structural integrity and chemical resistance required in demanding plumbing, industrial, and process piping applications. It weighs 3.653 pounds and fits a 2-inch pipe size. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting when joining sections of threaded pipe in systems carrying water, mild chemicals, or other compatible media.

This pipe nipple is suited for use in residential and commercial plumbing systems, as well as light industrial process piping where stainless steel is specified. Schedule 40 wall thickness meets standard pressure and flow requirements across a broad range of service conditions. The Grade 304 construction makes it a common choice in food service, marine, chemical handling, and general-purpose wet environments where carbon steel would corrode. It threads directly onto standard 2-inch NPT fittings and valves.

Installation Notes
